TG STORY CONCEPT - ANIME-FICATION AND THE ECCHIVERSE
Added 2025-11-18 13:00:10 +0000 UTCThe Ecchiverse
Imagine if you will, a typical "3DPD" anon discovers a way to create a pocket dimension and true to form creates a pervy anime-inspired world; unfortunately, when he actually enters he loses all control over it and can't escape. As time goes on, some other people will occasionally get sucked in at random, some of whom are turned into waifu archetypes. This is the Ecchiverse.
When someone enters the Ecchiverse, they are immediately and permanently physically converted into a 2D anime girl. Their body, clothing, and even the world around them instantly obey the rules and aesthetics of an ecchi manga.
Two fratboys go in, one of them becomes a pink haired childhood friend pining over the other - now an harem protagonist; a cop in turn becomes a cute police girl in an 80s anime; a secret agent sent to investigate the anomalies sees himself becoming a delusional chunibyo who still acts like a secret agent.....and many many more join the cast of the Ecchiverse!
They all retain their memories. But now, they are characters in an ecchi manga, and the plot forces them to play their parts. How long can they resist not being "in character?"
How it would work:
It can be a single page pin-up or a long comic, hell, even ilustrated stories - the point is more to explore how a person gets converted in such world.

(Example of Animefication by Flashkill)
What I'm still pondering:
I'm not sure how "being transported to the Ecchiverse" could work. Some options I considered:
Option 1: The Accidental Intrusion (The Backrooms / Cursed Manga)
The Ecchiverse exists as a parallel dimension, a "glitch" in reality. It can be accessed through weak points: a specific forgotten alleyway, a website that only appears at 3:33 AM, or a cursed manga/anime DVD that acts as a gateway.
Cons: Dealing with "wait, isn't it sad that a lot of people are disapearing? What about their loved ones?"
Option 2: Isekai after Death
At the moment of death (or near-death), a person's consciousness is snatched and put in the Ecchiverse instead of passing on to the true afterlife, giving the person essentially a "second life".
Cons: Do I have to justify how ALL these people died? Or I can just ignore that detail?
Option 3: The Copy
Basicaly, whatever transports you to the Ecchiverse is actually creating a new consciousness that is, from its own perspective, you. The original you goes on living, completely unaware that a copy of him now is an anime girl.
Cons: Does it feel cheaper that the person TGed is a copy rather than the original?

WRITE DOWN WHAT YOU THINK! WHICH OPTION YOU PREFER TO BRING PEOPLE TO THE ECCHIVERSE? WHAT SORT OF PLOTS WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE ON IT? WHICH KIND OF CHARACTERS WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE TRANSFORMED?

Some extra thoughts:
"Hey Fenek, you are kind of a weeb, isn't animefication what you usally do anyway?". I say NO!
There is a special appeal in taking a realistic normal flesh and blood person, and making said person into a big titty anime girl in body and soul. Animefication has a very specific appeal.
Lets pick "Ashton Smith, 26, majoring in Biology, from Dallas" and throw him into an anime world. Imagine:
>The ODDNESS of not only turning into a woman, but his entire world nw being 2d - when he walks his breasts bounce and LITERALLY make "boing" sounds, when he is dramatic sparkles literally shine around him, when he is caught doing something embarrasing everything goes dark and a spotlight literally shines on him.
>Not only a 2d woman! He, a threee dimensional multi-layered person now has a dominant personality archetype! Maybe an ojou, maybe a sporty tsundere, maybe a shy childhood friend or idol, or a lusty clumsy teacher and so on! He probably had no choice on the matter, or maybe a single aspect of him got exagerated into a parody of human behavior!
>Even if he keeps his memmories and mind, THE VERY FRABIC OF REALITY has decided his new role - his sole objective - he was crafted to become a fanservice fantasy; The universe will conspire for him to fall in love with the bland male self insert! For him to give acidental panty shots! For him to stumble and fall with his breasts in MC's face! If he is savy he will know that that if he marries MC his breasts wil grow as a reward, and he will starts saying "ara ara" as a MILF. This is his life from now on.
>Wait, as a 2d being, are you even "human" at this point? Is he no longer a human, but a character, designed to fulfill specific narrative functions?
>After years wouldn't it feel weird and out of place to run and NOT hear "BOING" sounds? To NOT be able to pull a hammer from his cleavage? If some outsider ended up in the same situation as him, wouldn't he assume that Ashton was always this anime girl? Wait, is somebody out there WATCHING/READING Ashton's hijinks?
>He might even start asking himself - was he really "Ashton Smith, 26, majoring in Biology, from Dallas - coming from a three dimensional world"? Or was he always Akimi Tachibana, the naive pink haired schoolgirl, with massive oppai and whose catchphrase is 'Munyun~' ? Looking in the mirror, doesn't it make sense that she is a bit deluded munyun~?
Comments
I vote option one. The fact that the fictional characters lives are being permanently changed makes for a more engaging story/setting.

2025-11-22 05:13:30 +0000 UTCOption one opens up the world to have some SCP style agency in the backround who's recording these dissappearances while trying to figure out what's going on. Possibly a plot point you could take somewhere as the series progresses.
Draknus2009
2025-11-20 16:02:38 +0000 UTCI don't see why you have to choose one over the other. There are anime that have had multiple ways to enter the other world. That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime had reincarnation and summons. You could realistically have all three (yes, I said realistically). I would like to see an Option 1 where a male office worker slips into the Ecchiverse through a rarely used supply closet. He becomes a big titty senpai to a new hire who seems to draw a lot of sexy coworkers to him.

2025-11-20 04:07:17 +0000 UTCOption 3, but tg both one goes on in the orginal universe thinking they were always the sex that they present as, the mirror goes on to wacky hijinks of the Animeverse.

2025-11-19 22:01:02 +0000 UTCCons: Dealing with "wait, isn't it sad that a lot of people are disapearing? What about their loved ones?" This is only a con if you acknowledge it. If you don’t then it isn’t an issue. People only think about Subaru’s parents because the writer made it an issue. No one cares about Kazuma’s folks or Naofumi’s folks because it isn’t made an issue.

2025-11-19 10:47:00 +0000 UTCI think Option One is best, personally.
Jollycooperative
2025-11-19 05:55:33 +0000 UTCI think option one is best. Also, a couple character ideas. A middle aged male teacher becomes A young female teacher worried about becoming a "Christmas cake' and is desperate to find a man. A glasses wearing, hard studying nerd becomes a buxom air headed gyaru. A jock becomes a shy nerd girl that secretly wears really sexy undies and is massive fan of romance manga.

2025-11-18 23:42:38 +0000 UTCI say they should be able to learn into the tropes. That wearing glasses usually mean that individual is smarter so even if they don't wear glasses someone might add them to get the 'smart trope' added into them in order to make themselves smarter. Doesn't mean they can avoid the other issues, but leaning into the tropes on purpose could be fun in itself.

2025-11-18 19:17:15 +0000 UTCThat's a fantastic concept
MightFenek
2025-11-18 18:07:38 +0000 UTCI like option 1 because it feels like the opportunity for random people getting stuck in is highest and I like how unavoidable the fate is with that one
Altoone
2025-11-18 18:03:55 +0000 UTCOption 3 has the most potential for if they try to escape (or succeed), otherwise, the story can only end one way (escape/dont escape). W option 3 you've got so many options (meet your 'copy', existential crisis, wanting your life back but someone else is living it, romantic relationship w your old self, being an anime girl in the real world, etc)
Halima Abdi
2025-11-18 17:55:04 +0000 UTCYOU CAN ALSO LeAve it ambiguous like Digital circus
ASTREW
2025-11-18 15:53:19 +0000 UTCI think that any of the three options could work, so long as you don’t dwell too much on the implications. I also think that, to me, the most interesting part of the example page you showed is that Batman doesn’t just become an anime lady, she becomes an adult magical girl. And I guess that’s sort of the most natural direction to go with someone who’s already a superhero, but I will say that seeing someone fulfilling a slightly more exaggerated role is very fun to me, and someone being turned into, e.g. a love interest in a grounded slice of life anime, even with anime-isms like panty shots and breasts that go boing, would be a bit less so.
GriffinSlayer12
2025-11-18 15:44:21 +0000 UTCI do like Option 3 for its potential aftermath. If the victim escapes, there's another them to react to the copy's changes. Or make the one in the real world the copy, why not? Double the existential nightmare!
kanoyume
2025-11-18 15:35:30 +0000 UTCAny of the three options could work if you don’t think too hard on the cons. Heck, you could probably mix a few of them together for interesting results too. For example, protagonist finds cursed VHS and is transplanted into the anime, whatever force is in control reveals it placed a copy of protagonist back in real world so it won’t be missed, but will continue to pass around the anime to add more to its world.
RocketKnight777
2025-11-18 15:12:34 +0000 UTCCall me a fence sitter, but all three options would make for great fun story telling to expand on the ecchiverse Could also be fun idea that as more people “join” the universe, it’s power grows, sometimes bleeding into and altering other realities or universes As for methods, it’s been a hot minute since we saw a long form comic from you, so would love to see one with this story concept as an “introduction” to that universe, then can have pinups or short stories from there

2025-11-18 14:54:14 +0000 UTCRe: Option 3... Back in the 'aughts, there was an RPG line called Chronicles of Darkness. In that line, there was a sub-line called Changeling the Lost. The core conceit of the game being you are playing a changeling; a person who was taken by a Fae Lord (reality warper with a pocket dimension) to serve them as however they see fit, and you managed to escape that reality, but were fundamentally changed by the alternate rules of that world. This manifested in making bargains with parts of the world; darkness would shelter you if you regularly smashed light-bulbs, etc. A very common wrinkle in these stories was that the Fae Lord would leave behind a fetch to take your place. So when you come back to reality, not only does it have no place for you, you're *there* living in your house, wearing your clothes, laughing with your *friends.* The fetch was a simulacra; the standard interpretation was a doll made of a bit of string and dirt; but it did generally think like you, know everything you did at the time of departure, and very importantly, it recognized you. Now, spoilers for a pen and paper RPG that's at least a decade out of normal circulation; if you hit the power cap for a Changeling, they lose connection with reality and become a new fae lord; repeating the cycle. And killing one's fetch; which *usually* turns back into straw and dirt on death; is a quick boost to power and disassociation. So, we've got the obvious parallels here, but also a means of propagation. A changed who manages to somehow escape the hentai-verse, no doubt very changed by their time there, returns to 'reality' and finds out that as far as they know; she never left. *He's been here the whole time.* So she responds as her archtype now allows, and tries to return to a normal life, but the world doesn't work the same for her now, and each time she exploits those distortions, it becomes just that bit harder to be normal. And they're just so much easier to use than mortal means. Until eventually, she no longer has an answer as to what she wants from this place. She wanted freedom from the archtype, but she's found freedom *through* it, and the hentai verse is so bright and warm and soft and feels just so good... and now *she* can be the MC. Start her own harem. Do it *right.* Anyway, if you get a chance, maybe poke around the World of Darkness stuff. There's a lot of crazy gonzo in the lore, and I think you'd get a kick out of the main themes.

2025-11-18 14:49:43 +0000 UTCThere already exists a version of them on the other side, they swap places because they want to escape the trope trap that is their universe

2025-11-18 14:31:05 +0000 UTCMore like animeforce
MightFenek
2025-11-18 14:10:56 +0000 UTC1: Could always do something similar to the existence of Mr. Mxyzptlk where there wouldn’t necessarily be an explanation possible. 2: Have some effect to either erase the memories of or outright erase the old existence of the character/person you’re transporting.

2025-11-18 13:36:33 +0000 UTCI personally like the backrooms idea myself, I feel like there is a lot of potential with this idea.
